This week we continue our examination of the Israeli Lobby which, for decades has distorted both the Israeli and Palestinian narrative to advance Israel’s colonization of Palestine. Its enormous power was manifested this past week when it pressured Facebook, Zoom and ultimately YouTube to deny their platforms to broadcast a pro Palestinian forum at San Francisco University. Backed by millions of dollars of funding, the Israeli Lobby has established a stranglehold on US Institutions of government, which historically have helped establish and continue to fund Israel’s colonial project and their creation of a discriminatory, Apartheid society on Palestinian land. Today we feature Akron University professor Walter Hixson, who has studied and written about the Lobby over the past couple of decades putting the issue in context at the Palestine Center in Washington, DC. It begins with the introduction of Walter Hixson by the Center's executive director, Mohammed Mohammed.

My dad Herman Frederick Moe was a radio & TV repairman and electrician, a country & western "cowboy singer" and rustic guitar player. He performed in the late 1930’s on live radio before he enlisted in World War II as a radio-telephone technician. This show is my homage to him. My father loved the other side of radio as well – the listening side – it kept him company during many lonesome nights in the 30’s, 40’s, 50’s & 60's. From my imagination to your ears – it’s WHFM – vintage music from mid century America. This is music that I believe he would have enjoyed.

DJ Frederick's bi-weekly half hour of lo-fi Indie folk, indie pop & indie rock from the 1970's to the present.

The current coronavirus pandemic is more than a medical crisis, it is also a political and ideological crisis. It is a crisis deeply rooted in years of neglect by neoliberal governments that denied the importance of public health and the public good while defunding the institutions and decades of austerity. Latin Waves host Sylvia Richardson speaks with Jorge Marti about government’s response to the coronavirus in Western countries, the impact of decades of austerity and neoliberalism policies on health institutions. This pandemic is a call for an end to all sanctions, causing needless death.

Climate Crisis and the Global Green New DealfeaturingRobert Pollin, Distinguished University Professor of Economics and Co-Director of the Political Economy Research Institute (PERI) at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst. His books include Greening the Global Economy, Back to Full Employment (2012), and A Measure of Fairness: The Economics of Living Wages and Minimum Wages in the United States. Robert Pollin, the renowned progressive economist maps out the catastrophic consequences of unchecked climate change"and presents a realistic blueprint for change: the Green New Deal. Pollin shows how the forecasts for a hotter planet strain the imagination: vast stretches of the Earth will become uninhabitable, plagued by extreme weather, drought, rising seas, and crop failure. Arguing against the misplaced fear of economic disaster and unemployment arising from the transition to a green economy, he shows this bogus concern encourages climate denialism. Climate change is an emergency that cannot be ignored and Pollin doesnt!

Radio Thrift Shop is DJ Frederick's decade long (and counting) experiment, having evolved from his Seldom Heard Radio in 2011. Radio Thrift Shop has a flexible format & an homage to the "underground" era of broadcasts of the 1960's and 1970's that DJ Frederick grew up listening to & features a homegrown mix of vinyl records, 78s, 45's, LPs, private press releases, and a variety of cassette tapes and homemade / self released cassettes & cds. Each broadcast of Radio Thrift Shop features an improvised or thematic playlist from DJ Frederick's music library. It's never the same program twice. Or even once.
